Sorry for the lack of updates

Internet access is hard to come by, and we're really busy.

Here is a run down of the past few days.
On sunday we had the first round of the individuals. We had several of our folks finish with 1st and seconds and they move on to round 2, to be held later in the week.

Yesterday we began the team event round 1 at Bakio. It was a long day with lots of surfing. The conditions at the "A" site were much like a big beach break day back home, with some really large waves coming in and breaking hard. Many on the beach were scared but not our crew, we're used to the trashings :) There were many good rides and the competition has been tough. Big congrats to brother sister duo Alexander and Rebecca Stubbs. Alexander won his heat and rebecca, who hasn't beensurf kayaking very long, held her own to earn us some valuable points in her heat.

As of yesterday evening, our team was tied for 4th place with Jersey. The top 4 teams after round 2 go to finals.
Here are the standings:

1^st Basque 29pts
2^nd England 30 pts
3^rd N Ireland 34 pts
4^th Jersey 35 pts
5^th US East 35 pts
6^th US West 26 pts
7^th Wales 42 pts
8^th Ireland 44 pts
9^th Scotland 51pts
